Abstract
A computer device implemented method includes displaying, via the computer device, content on a display device, sensing a pupil size of a user of the computer, and adjusting a luminosity setting of the display device based on the sensed pupil size and a pupil size setpoint.
Claims19
A computer device implemented method comprising:
- displaying, via the computer device, content on a display device;
- sensing a pupil size of a user of the computer viewing the content by:
- capturing an image of the user via a computer device camera;
- identifying a pupil of the user in the image;
- and
- measuring the size of the identified pupil;
- and
- adjusting a luminosity setting of the display device based on the sensed pupil size and a pupil size setpoint to control the pupil size to the pupil size setpoint.
A machine-readable storage device having instructions for execution by a processor of a machine to cause the processor to perform operations to perform a method, the operations comprising:
- displaying, via the computer device, content on a display device;
- sensing a pupil size of a user of the computer viewing the display device;
- and
- adjusting a luminosity setting of the display device based on the sensed pupil size and a pupil size setpoint to control the pupil size.
A device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory device coupled to the processor and having a program stored thereon for execution by the processor to perform operations comprising:
- displaying, via the computer device, content on a display device;
- sensing a pupil size of a user of the computer;
- and
- adjusting a luminosity setting of the display device based on the sensed pupil size and a pupil size setpoint to control the pupil size.
